This primordial world is not serious!

Chapter 853 - 443: Ultimate Showdown, Twilight of the Gods! [Unity of Two Chapters, 7k]

The battlefield of the Heavenly Court, at the other end.

As the ultimate kill array of the Witch and Demon Clans unfolded above the Nine Heavens for their final showdown, another equally tragic, yet colored with personal heroism, chase was also nearing its end.

Red Cloud, once the greatest benefactor of the Primordial and the "Mouth King" of the Heavenly Court, was in a sorry state at this moment, transforming into an unsteady red cloud, dashing left and right amidst the attacks of the gods.

His Nine Nine Scattered Soul Red Gourd body was already covered with cracks.

His face, which always wore a benevolent smile, was now stained with golden Divine Blood and exhaustion.

His comrades had fallen.

Even his own Good Corpse and Evil Corpse had been destroyed.

Behind him were more than ten fierce "rebel" holy beings.

Lord of Myriad Phenomena, Spiritual Ruler God Monarch, Divine Monarch Liming...

They had also lost many Daoists to besiege Red Cloud.

But at this moment, having been enraged by Red Cloud's "Heart Punishment Words," they had long cast aside all reason.

Their only thought was to catch up with that damned Red Cloud and tear his foul mouth with the most venomous Divine Skills!

"Red Cloud! You lackey of the Demon Court! Don't think you can run anymore!"

"Today, we act on behalf of Heaven!"

One after another, attacks full of hatred and anger continued to pursue relentlessly.

Although Red Cloud dodged the deadly blows time and again in desperate situations with his masterful, supremely fast Divine Skills,

he was, after all, alone.

It seemed that realizing his fate, Red Cloud suddenly ceased his escape.

Slowly, he turned around, his eyes showing an unprecedented calmness and determination, as if he had seen through everything!

"What? Not running?"

Seeing this, Lord of Myriad Phenomena and others stopped, surrounding him with cruel smiles on their faces.

"Realized you have no way out?"

"Run? Hahaha."

Hearing this, Red Cloud burst into laughter, his laughter full of endless mockery and tragedy.

His gaze slowly swept over every familiar yet strange face before him.

"I just can't understand."

His voice became deep, full of confusion.

"I just can't understand why those who once listened to the Dao together in the Purple Cloud Palace, fellow Daoists at the Heavenly Dao Academy, today, would kill their comrades for an illusory 'ideal'?"

"Shut up!" Divine Monarch Liming interrupted him sternly, "Our actions are to rectify Heaven and Earth!"

"You conniving villain, deceiving all beings, aiding the Demon Emperor, walking a treacherous path!"

"We do not act for the selfish benefit of one race, but for the freedom of the ten thousand races!"

"Rectify?"

The mockery on Red Cloud's face deepened.

"Rectifying Heaven and Earth, indeed!"

"Look above your heads! Look at those Great Emperors fighting to the death with the Thirteen Ancestor Witches! Look at those countless Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, filled with passion, guarding the Heavenly Court Order!"

"Then look at yourselves!"

His voice suddenly rose, like thunder exploding in the hearts of every "rebel" holy being!

"Colluding with the Witch Clan, stabbing colleagues in the back, causing division in the Heavenly Court, leading to endless warfare, casting beings into a terrible state!"

"This is what you call rectifying Heaven and Earth?!"

These heart-piercing words caused Lord of Myriad Phenomena and others to turn pale, subconsciously stepping back half a step.

However, at this stage, there was no turning back.

"Don't try to beguile us with your deceitful words!"

Lord of Myriad Phenomena's eyes burst with murderous intent.

"Today, you are doomed to die!"

"Attack! Crush him completely into dust!"

With his command!

More than ten holy beings simultaneously transformed their Dao Bodies, or split into Good and Evil Corpses,

In an instant, endless destructive Divine Skill lights, like floodwaters bursting from a dam, engulfed the red figure at the center from all directions!

In the face of such a kill array.

Red Cloud closed his eyes.

He made no further resistance.

He merely slowly opened his arms, as if to embrace the entire world.

The face that always bore a kind smile now shone with a holy, martyr-like radiance!

He ignited every last bit of mana within him along with the Nine Nine Scattered Soul Red Gourd Origin that was about to shatter!

He did not choose self-detonation to perish together with the enemy.

Instead, he transformed this power into a final Daoist declaration filled with endless Dao resonance and steadfast belief!

"The Qi of All Heavens abounds; my Dao shall prosper!"

His voice, at this moment, drowned out all the rumblings and shouting!

Clearly, it echoed throughout the entire Primordial World!

That voice was filled with infinite faith and beautiful wishes for the "Heavenly Court Righteous Path"!

Then, suddenly, he opened his eyes!

Those eyes, which always seemed somewhat "too kind," now shot out beams of blood-colored divine light filled with endless venom and cold curses!

With all his remaining strength, he flung a talisman—a reinforced Heart Punishment Talisman. (For details, see Chapter 48: None of Us Are Upright)

This was Zhen Yuanzi's masterpiece.

The effect of this item lies in "heart punishment."

The harsher the insult, the stronger the heart punishment effect, and the greater the lethality.

On the brink of death, Red Cloud unleashed the most malicious curse of his life with this item!

"You traitorous scoundrels! Today, though you may kill the body of Red Cloud, you cannot extinguish my heart loyal to the Heavenly Court!"

"I curse you! May your 'Dao' forever live in the shadow of today's betrayal!"
